TransmiT mode only
The Plus II can be set to operate only as a Transmitter
and perform no Receive or Relay function.
Transmit Only Mode is helpful when 2 or more
photographers are sharing remote flash units on
the same PocketWizard channel, and are using
one or more Plus II units as Transmitters from
their cameras.
In normal operation, when the first photographer triggers
their camera, the second photographer's Plus II performs
Receive/Relay functions. This may occur when an
immediate Transmit function is desired, for example when
the photographers are triggering within moments of each
other and using a fast recycling flash. In addition, the second photographer's
on-camera flash may be triggered unintentionally. Transmit Only Mode resolves
these potential situations.
Activating Transmit Only Mode
Step 1: Turn off the Plus II unit(s) being used for Transmit
Step 2: Press and hold the TEST button as you turn the unit back on
The Status LEDs will show a fast blinking pattern indicating Transmit Only Mode. You
can verify Transmit Only operation by triggering any other PocketWizard Transmitter
and noting that this unit does not respond.
Transmit Only Mode is not remembered when the unit is turned off. You will need to
activate Transmit Only Mode every time you need it.
To return the unit to Normal Mode, turn it off and back on again normally. Do not hold
down TEST when powering on. The Status LED's will show the normal slow blinking
pattern indicating normal mode.
